Sam Houston Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Special Weight
PREACHERMAN (4) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1207m at Remington Park, beaten 28 lengths. Going up a level this time but he is good enough to play a major role. TEXAS TOUGH (5) is on debut for the Miguel Silva stable. Three-year-old colt by Ride The Times from Temple Tower. Looks set to run well. Betting holds the key. ONTHETHIRSTYSIDE (2) is appearing for the first time. By Stay Thirsty and comes from the Mindy Willis stable. Any push in betting should be respected. TEXAS HUNK (6) didn't do a lot on debut seven weeks ago, finishing 26 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1106m at Remington Park (Dirt). Open to plenty of improvement. Don't underestimate.
